Natrium is part of the E-sites iOS Suite.
A pre-build (Swift) script to alter your Xcode project at build-time per environment and build configuration.
With Natrium you can change this:
#if ENVIRONMENT_STAGING
let apiHost = "mynice.staging-api.com"
#elseif ENVIRONMENT_DEVELOPMENT
let apiHost = "mynice.dev-api.com"
#else
let apiHost = "mynice.api.com"
#endif
Alamofire.request("https://\(apiHost)/items").responseJSON { response in
// ...
}
Into this:
let apiHost = Natrium.Config.apiHost
Alamofire.request("https://\(apiHost)/items").responseJSON { response in
// ...
}
⚠️ IMPORTANT
For Natrium v6.x you need to manually import theNatrium.swift
file to your project to make it work in the new xcode build system. Read the Installation guide.Natrium v5.x doesn't need a build phase script anymore.
Open yourBuild Phases
from your target settings and remove the[Natrium] check
step.Else your build will fail during the script steps
- Swift 4.0 compatible
- Use swift instead of ruby
- Remove ImageMagick dependency
- Unit tests
- Different installation options (apart from CocoaPods)
- Better error handling / reporting
- CocoaPods → Read the instructions here.
- Carthage → Read the instructions here.
- Manually → Read the instructions here.
Just add Natrium.swift
(from the designated location, see installation guide) to your project's target (do not copy).
Just add NatriumConfig.h
and NatriumConfig.m
to your project's target (do not copy)
Configuration documentation can be found here.
The example .natrium.yml
as shown above, will result in the following Config.swift file:
import Foundation
/// Natrium.swift
/// Autogenerated by natrium
///
/// - see: https://github.com/e-sites/Natrium
class Natrium {
enum Environment: String {
case staging = "Staging"
case production = "Production"
}
enum Configuration: String {
case debug = "Debug"
case release = "Release"
case adhoc = "Adhoc"
}
class Config {
static let environment: Natrium.Environment = .staging
static let configuration: Natrium.Configuration = .debug
static let testVariableDouble: Double = 1.0
static let testVariableString: String = "debugString"
static let testVariableBoolean: Bool = false
static let testVariableInteger: Int = 125
}
}
It can be used like so:
class MainViewController: UIViewController {
override func viewDidLoad() {
super.viewDidLoad()
print("bundle identifier: \(Bundle.main.bundleIdentifier!)")
print("environment: \(Natrium.Config.environment)")
}
}
Result:
bundle identifier: com.esites.app.staging
environment: Staging
To re-run the previous natrium command with the stored arguments from the Natrium.lock file:
./natrium install
In the Pods/Natrium/bin/
folder you can find natrium.log
with the logs of the previous build. It might help you with debugging.
